Abstract

Objective The correlation of adiponectin with cholesterol concentration of fractionated lipoproteins has not been well investigated. Methods This study included 174 subjects (79 men and 95 women) without diabetes. The medical record data were investigated retrospectively. The study subjects with adiponectin <8.3, > 8.3 but less 13.9, and ≥ 13.9 were classified into tertile groups: Groups A ( n = 59), B ( n = 58) and C ( n = 57), respectively. Results In women, age and HDL-C were higher in Group C than in Groups A and B, but BMI, TG, IDL-C and VLDL-C were lower in Group C than in Groups A and B. In men, BMI was lower in Group C than in Groups A and B, and HDL-C was higher in Group C than in Groups A and B. In multiple stepwise regression analysis, BMI and HDL-C were significantly correlated with adiponectin in whole, male and female subjects, but TG-rich lipoprotein cholesterol concentrations were not independently correlated. Conclusions HDL-C and BMI were independently correlated with adiponectin in non-diabetic men and women. These results suggest that high adiponectin may play a role in the increased HDL-C concentrations, implicated in the reduction of cardiovascular disease risk, in non-diabetic subjects.

ApoE, Lipids & Cholesterol

Serum cholesterol, triglycerides, apolipoprotein B (APOB)-containing lipoproteins (very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL), immediate-density lipoprotein (IDL), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), lipoprotein A (LPA)) and the total cholesterol/high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol ratio are all connected in diseases. Here is the latest research.
